3. “But those things which God foretold by
the mouth of all His prophets, that the
Christ would suffer, He has thus
fulfilled.” (Acts 3:18)
Jesus’ plan of Atonement was prepared before the creation of Earth (1 Peter
1:20). God disclosed many details of His plan through prophets. For example:
His virginal birth
(Isaiah 7:14)
The date of His
baptism and His
death (Daniel 9:24-27)
His mission
(Isaiah 61:1)
His divinity
(Isaiah 9:6)
His mercy
(Isaiah 42:1-4)
His substitutionary
sacrifice
(Isaiah 53:4-5)
His resurrection
(Psalm 16:10)

4. “‘and I will shake all nations, and
they shall come to the Desire of All
Nations, and I will fill this temple
with glory,’ says the Lord of
hosts.” (Haggai 2:7)
Jesus came as “the Desire of
All Nations.” He proclaimed
the universality of His mission
since His birth.
 “A light to bring revelation to the
Gentiles.” (Luke 2:32)
 “And all flesh shall see the
salvation of God.” (Luke 3:6)

commanded them, saying: ‘Do not go

house of Israel.’” (Matthew 10:5-6) The people of Israel was called to
be a light for the nations (Isaiah
60:1-3). Therefore, Jesus sent
His disciples to preach to the
house of Israel first.
After that initial preaching, the
Gospel would be spread in wider
circles so the whole world would
eventually listen to it (Acts 1:8).
